An interactive dog toy can keep your pet occupied, encourage them to get moving and give you both some lovely moments together. But not every toy suits every dog. A ball that’s too small could be dangerous for a medium or large dog, while a puzzle toy that’s too complicated may end up forgotten at the back of a cupboard if your dog isn’t used to this kind of activity.
Before you place your order, keep these three pitfalls in mind:
First, check that the toy is suitable for your pet’s size. A toy for a small dog should be easy to pick up, without any detachable parts that are too small. For a toy for a medium or large dog, choose a sturdier design and a shape that’s easy for them to grip.
The type of activity you’re looking for matters too:
Check the toy’s materials carefully: natural rubber, nylon, rope, polyester, EVA and electronic components all offer different levels of durability and are suited to different uses. With an electronic toy, pay particular attention to the battery, charging port and removable parts.
Regularly check the seams, ropes, squeakers, fabric coverings and crinkly paper elements. Even a dog dental toy is no substitute for the oral care recommended by a professional, and it shouldn’t be presented as a medical device.
A washable toy or one with a removable cover is especially handy if your dog plays often. Some natural rubber models can go in the dishwasher, usually on the top rack and only if the instructions say so. Electronic toys should be wiped clean and kept away from water.
To avoid any nasty surprises, also check:

We’ve brought together a comprehensive selection, updated in real time, of products that meet these exacting criteria and European safety requirements.
Start with a short session in a quiet place. Put an easy-to-reach treat inside the toy, or gently roll the ball in front of your dog. Take it away after a few minutes to keep them curious. You can gradually make the activity more challenging over the next few sessions.
It depends on how often it’s used, how hard your dog chews and the materials it’s made from. Check the toy before and after every session. Replace it if a seam comes undone, a rope starts to fray, the squeaker becomes visible or a piece comes loose. Never leave a dog who tries to tear off or swallow pieces alone with their toy.
A rechargeable model saves you from buying batteries regularly, but it needs more care when charging and cleaning. Keep the USB port dry, put the cable out of your dog’s reach and follow the manufacturer’s recommendations. For simple, fuss-free play, a rubber toy or snuffle mat may be a better choice.
